DemonCraps and Ethics.... an oxymoron if I've ever seen one.
The DemonCrap election is being bought and paid for by the candidates.
Obamarama is way out in front with the vote buying. He has paid some
$600,000 of the $800,000 paid to the superdelegates in this scam of an
election.
Now you have some idiot in California that wants $20 million for his
superdelegate vote....
what's next.... superdelgate votes on ebay?

DemonCraps.... Making the lives of poor people even more miserable!
